In 2001 he accepted a post as lecturer in Manchester. His research interests include the application of X-rays in structural studies of materials at the atomic scale, optical characterisation methods at the meso- and macroscopic scale and associated high precision instrumentation. Roelof has a strong track record in developing innovative instrumentation and to exploit their application in close collaboration with dedicated users groups both in the UK, Europe and the US.
